Won't have to water the plants today. God gave us an inch and a half last night.

But, I will have to pick us the mess in my backyard. Twigs, leaves, monkey balls. One of my hibiscus plants blew over, so I'll have to check it for damage. The patio chairs are all over the yard. And Cate's water table blew over.

Oh well, if it's not one thing, it's 6 or 8, as my dear old Dad used to say.wink

After I pick up the mess, I plan to watch The Tennis.

And Cate is coming down to play at 10.

I hope everyone has a good day!smile

Be careful, FNW.

I think when I pick Cate up, we'll make a Costco run. I'm out of seltzer water, and Greek yogurt.

I never know what I might impulse buy. LOL!

Okay, time to pick up the mess.

Whoa. FWM you have monkeys in your yard? .

Morning all. Unfortunately people have realized that I sign in on my work laptop around 6. They've kept me hopping since 6:30.

Storms moving in later. Must take down the patio umbrella.

LOL! No, like a couple of dummies, Wayne and I planted a sweet gum tree in 1997. We wanted something that would grow fast so we would have shade. Little did we know, they drop these stupid seed pods. We call them monkey balls. I spend all summer picking the darn things up!

What a pain in the butt!wink

 And why are their balls all over your yard?  What are you doing to those poor monkeys??

Holy ****, I just just about died on a bus. Like for real. Semi made an illegal left turn and I was sure that the bus was going head on into it’s rear quarter panel. Whatever the driver did he started to be able to avoid it but I was still sure the front right (at the headlight) wAs going to be sheared off nd I was sitting in the front seat. If it hit I would have gone over the empty handicap seating row and into the luggage holder. Or bounced off it and gone through the windshield.

Or the corner would have sheared through the front right of the bus right to where I was sitting. He missed it by inches.

I can feel the neck / back strain that you get when the brakes are hit really hard and suddenly. I’m going to have to emdr myself when I get to work.

Hi, all.

Waiting for the rain, watching the hummingbirds, trying to talk myself into going out and getting errands done.

It's great your daughter and her friends want to hang at your house.

Forced myself to get my errands done.

Everyone wanted Chinese, so brought that home for them.

I'm having a cheese sandwich and pretzels, with ginger ale.

Had a thunderstorm roll through. It was quick, more noise than anything. It did cool things down just a bit.

Think I'll binge some Netflix.

Happy Thursday evening.

And, once again...we wanted a fast growing tree, and the guy at Home Depot told us to buy a Sweet Gum tree.

Yes, they grow fast! Great shade!

But, the fruit they drop, is a pain in the ass.cry

If you ever stepped on Legos, in bare feet...these devils are 100 times worse. (Not that I ever walk in bare feet...but, Wayne does. More fool him!biggrin)

Here is an article, about the spiny devils:  https://homeguides.sfgate.com/method-removing-sweetgum-balls-lawn-76805.html

Tig ~
Glad you had a good driver on
your bus! Next time you see
him, let him know he did a
good job.

Glad you got through it OK.

 I sent a message to transit customer service before I even got off the bus.  I didn't want to forget the driver number.

 Damn those are scary looking things!  They look kinda evil!  I feel sorry for female monkeys though; procreating must be dangerous!

This is the best Yelp review/responses that I've ever seen. Worth skimming!
